1. Thus says the Lord Yahweh: The gate of the inner court facing east shall be shut during the six workdays, but on the Sabbath day it shall be opened, and on the day of the new moon it shall be opened.
2. The prince shall enter by way of the porch of the gate from outside and stand by the gatepost, and the priests shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall bow down at the threshold of the gate, then go out; but the gate shall not be shut until evening.
3. The people of the land shall worship at the entrance of that gate before Yahweh on the Sabbaths and new moons.
4. The burnt offering that the prince offers to Yahweh on the Sabbath day consists of six unblemished lambs and a ram without blemish.
5. The grain offering is an ephah for the ram, and for the lambs the grain offering is a gift according to his means, with a hin of oil per ephah.
6. On the day of the new moon a young bull unblemished, six lambs, and a ram; they shall be unblemished.
7. He shall prepare a grain offering of an ephah for the bull and an ephah for the ram, and for the lambs as his hand attains, with a hin of oil to an ephah.
8. When the prince enters, he enters by way of the porch of the gate and goes out by its way.
9. When the people of the land come before Yahweh at the appointed feasts, whoever enters through the north gate to worship must leave through the south gate, and whoever enters through the south gate must leave through the north gate; no one returns through the gate by which he entered, because they go out straight ahead.
10. And the prince in their midst shall enter when they enter, and they shall go out when they go out.
11. In the feasts and appointed times, the grain offering shall be an ephah for a bull, an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs a gift of his hand, with a hin of oil per ephah.
12. When the prince brings a freewill burnt offering or peace offerings as a freewill gift to Yahweh, they open for him the gate facing east, and he offers his burnt offering and his peace offerings as he does on the sabbath day; then he goes out, and after his departure they shut the gate.
13. You shall prepare a yearling lamb without blemish as a daily burnt offering to Yahweh; morning by morning you shall prepare it.
14. You shall prepare a grain offering with it morning by morning: a sixth of an ephah, and a third of a hin of oil to mix with the fine flour—a grain offering to Yahweh, eternal statutes observed continually.
15. They shall prepare the lamb, the grain offering, and the oil, morning by morning, as a continual burnt offering.
16. Thus says the Lord Yahweh: If the prince gives a gift to one of his sons, it is his inheritance; it shall belong to his sons; it is their possession by inheritance.
17. But if he gives a gift from his inheritance to one of his servants, it shall belong to him until the year of liberty; then it shall return to the prince, but his inheritance shall belong to his sons.
18. The prince shall not take from the people's inheritance to dispossess them of their holdings; from his own holding he shall bequeath an inheritance to his sons, so that my people will not be scattered, each from his holding.
19. He brought me through the entry beside the gate to the holy chambers for the priests facing north, and there was a place at their rear on the west.
20. He said to me, "This is the place where the priests boil the trespass offering and the sin offering there, and where they bake the grain offering, so they do not carry them out to the outer court to sanctify the people."
21. He brought me out to the outer court and led me by the four corners of the court; and look, a court was in a corner of the court, a court in a corner of the court.
22. In the four corners of the court were enclosed courts forty long and thirty wide; these four corner ones all shared one measurement.
23. A row encircled them on all four sides, and boiling places were made beneath the surrounding rows.
24. He said to me, “These are the boiling houses where the temple servants boil the people’s sacrifice there.”
